This paper addresses the nature of small defects which occur in engineering components and structures, and their subsequent growth to a size detectable by nondestructive inspection techniques. Consideration is given to fundamental aspects such as the modifying influence of residual stresses and 'crack closure' on the growth of small cracks. Possible differences between laboratory test data and in-service crack growth are high-lighted. Practical aspects are illustrated with specific reference to the example of the safety-critical high pressure turbine disc of an aeroengine.
